Re: governmental for state

'Governmental' doesn't sound right to me. I've had a look in BNC (British National Corpus (BYU-BNC)), and it has no hits for 'governmental leadership', 7 for 'state leadership' and 6 for 'government leadership'. COCA - a bigger corpus, for Am Eng) has 6 hits for 'governmental leadership' but 5 or 6 times as many for each of the others.
